Parking- I just did the paid parking in the structure since it was closer. It was $8 for 2 hours. The komodama class was around $70 and you get to take home 2 you've made. The instructor was patient, helpful and had good instructions. The group had many follow up questions and he explained things well. They gave us a good assortment to choose from to make the kokadama. After we finished making them, we wanted cute vases and the instructor helped us find the best fitting one for our plant. The whole store is filled with adorable plants and accessories. I walked out of there thinking I'll be able to keep my plants alive but it's a serious challenge. Overall, highly recommend taking a class from Pigment. It's a fun way to have a day date where you use your hands and enjoy their beautiful outside patio.

Everywhere I go now some idiot has decided that nothing will do but to play horribly loud, inappropriate music for the setting.

I got my Labubu some crocs here for $10 and it came with the cutest charms. Prices run a bit higher, but you're paying for convenience compared to ordering from the official source like PopMart, which often sells out. The staff were very nice and helpful. I'll definitely be coming back.
